FAA Proposes Changes to Airworthiness Directive for McDonnell Douglas DC-9 and MD-88 Airplanes

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is proposing to modify an existing airworthiness directive for certain McDonnell Douglas Model DC-9-80 series and Model MD-88 airplanes, which would eliminate the need for a revision to the Airplane Flight Manual (AFM) related to autothrottle disengagement during takeoff, following an investigation into an accident caused by a faulty digital flight guidance computer (DFGC).
